Richard Wright continues his work with York Glaziers Trust – Britain’s oldest stained glass conservation studio, who have a special connection to the medieval windows at York Minster. For this project he has made four leaded glass skylights in the ceiling at Aird’s Lane. Utilising the four rectangular skylights, Wright’s new work incorporates handmade, blown glass and leading, following a complex design developed by the artist. In response to the horizontal structure of the skylights, Wright has adapted the technique initially employed in his recent commission for Tate Britain’s eastern windows, in the Milbank foyer.’ (via The Modern Institute)

Just really love this - I am fascinated with shadows and reflections, especially distorted ones.  This is beautiful :-)

Love the scratched edges of the reflections.... Best bits of modern art I've seen in ages!

I just love the way that the light works on the walls. It has an ethereal magical quality :-)

beautiful, love stained glass, but I hadn't realised non-coloured glass could be so pretty
